It will hit Jamaica during an apparent intensification phase.

How this translates to the US approach makes me worry...


You going to evacuate if the current NHC track holds?

I expect Ivan to get 7.0 as it gets out of Jamaica.

Yorktown person talking ....... most windows gone, some people in shelters. The wind is taking down houses, trees and light poles.

people are now starting to flock to the shelters.
some are filling up and some of the shelters are prone to flooding and people are being directed elsewhere.

gangs of men are looting, armed and dangerous..

Roads are void of traffic and full of debri.. Trees and parts of roofs....


Just had to laugh they use 119 instead of 911 ... and are reminding people to report anytime of gunfire or looting. thats sad but the 119 thing caught me.. Can hear rain and wind as the police officer online is talking..

Ivan #12...over Tampa in 96

This could very well be a Cat. 5 before it hits Jamaica. In any case, the forecast is shifted back to the left a little (one track has been forecasted the past 3 nights, the other the past 2 mornings...bit odd.), and Cuba won't have a picnic with this either. Meanwhile, FL looking at a Cat. 3

A 6.5/6.5 is 127 knots but with a Pressure of 926 millibars. Boy is this going to be a close call.

Actually..it's an easy calculation.

5PM Position: 17.0 North 76.2 West
8PM Postion: 17.3 North 76.5 West

Change in North = .3 degrees
Change in West = .3 degrees

Going against a right triangle in that quad...you get two equal sides...or a 45 45 90 triangle. Bisect the 90 degree triangle and add 270 for the quadrant...

90/2 = 45+270 = 315 degrees.

Mike, damn your good!

25KT over Cuba may be slightly overdoing the weakening, thoguh toehrwise, a well though out forecast

i will meet you in front of the fire station at palmetto and 67th for the eye...lol.


HAHA, I dunno how safe that would be... :) If i had an SUV i would say sure, but i drive a small sports car, so i don't know how well i can do in the rain, and trees!! lol, i already have it tuned soo much i chirp on dry pavement let alone on wet pavement!

I Have been looking into different weather station software for my weather station... and i think i have found a really nice flash program to use... check it out here... as long as i have some sort of internet i will be on updating.. i have enough battery backup for 40+ hours... so i should be good :)

Here is a copy to a better representation of what the 18z gfs is showing...

I am skeptical that it will only strengthen 5 knots from cuba to landfall... that is some very hot water.

We'll probably have a good idea where he will go per the GFS tomorrow.

>5 days out- GFS smokes crack with his buddy, A98E

<5 days out- GFS enters rehab

<3 days out- GFS is hard to beat
